History[edit]

In 1963, Ellio's Pizza was founded in the Long Island, New York town of Great Neck by Elias Betzios, George Liolis, and Manny Tzelios.^[1] Four years later, Ellio's introduced its signature '9 slice' pizza in a box comprising 3 rectangular pizzas, each divisible crosswise into three slices.^[1] The original pizza consists of crust, pizza sauce and cheese with no additional toppings. This would remain Ellio's only formulation for almost 40 years until 2004, when Ellio's began selling pepperoni pizza.^{[citation needed]}

In 1988, McCain Foods acquired the Ellio's brand and continued pizza production in Lodi, NJ. In 2006, Ellio's added a microwaveable pizza to its product line, adopting the more common round pizza form. In 2009, the product line expanded further, with the introduction of italian sausage and 'Pepperoni Supreme' pizza.^[1]

In 2015, McCain Foods announced the sale of its North American pizza business, including the Ellio's brand and production facility, to Dr. Oetker.^[2] The brand has continued to expand its variety. As of 2015, Ellio's is available in 8 different crust and topping configurations.^[3]
